You don’t need to be a hardcore gym goer to attempt HIIT.
For more general HIIT classes, again, pick a sports bra that’s supportive as you’ll likely be moving around a lot in class. Supportive athletic shoes are also recommended, and it’s especially great if they are designed for lateral movements rather than just running .
When picking your class, look for classes that are labeled “beginner” or “intermediate” level, says Zadeh. Many gyms will have this distinction in their descriptions, and if you can’t tell the level of a class based on the online description, simply call the gym and ask. The front desk folks should be able to point you towards a beginner-friendly option.In O’Donnell’s experience, the biggest factor that stops people from starting HIIT is “overall intimidation.
That said, “you can’t expect a trainer to know all of your weaknesses,” says Straub. “You have to have some working knowledge yourself.” If you feel like you don't have a solid grasp on what you physically can and can't do, try personal training sessions before you go for HIIT.Whether you are a first-timer or a HIIT devotee, “it is tough work,” says Zadeh. During the high-intensity bursts, you should be pushing yourself to 80 to 90 percent of your maximum effort, says O’Donnell.
